2 round interview. 1 from engineer and 1 from the director. Asked for in field experience from internships. Talked about how fast paced it is compared to normal companies. Interview was 1 hour long each and got back within 2 weeks in between each.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe the hardest challenge you faced during my projects.
Completely virtual, 3 30 minute phone calls, some technical questions and some resume questions. Overall not terrible and they definitely use a standard question bank because I have gotten similar questions.

Question 1
Imagine a hot dog as a pressure vessel. Does it split laterally or longitudinally and why?
There was an initial phone call. Next, there was another phone technical interview. They gave engineering questions that were more basic but difficult if you did not take the classes.
